  • Publication number: 20210095582
    Abstract: An engine with rotating assembly is disclosed. The engine includes a block defining a cylinder bore; a crankshaft mounted for rotation in the block; a piston disposed in the cylinder bore; a connecting rod interconnecting the piston to the crankshaft; and a cylinder head coupled to the block having a combustion chamber aligned with the cylinder bore and having an intake opening and an exhaust opening communicating therewith; an intake port; an exhaust port; a rotatable intake valve barrel disposed between the intake opening and the intake port; and a rotatable exhaust valve barrel disposed between the exhaust opening and the exhaust port. A first electric motor is connected to the intake valve barrel and a second electric motor is connected to the exhaust valve barrel, the first electric motor rotates the intake valve barrel and second electric motor rotates the exhaust valve barrel independently of the intake valve barrel.

  • Patent number: 6974305
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for generating cavitation in fluids is disclosed. The apparatus includes a housing for receiving a rotor, which is driven by a motive force. Multiple embodiments of the rotors are disclosed including, but not limited to, centrally feed, centrally drained, face feed, and face drained rotors. In one preferred embodiment, cavitation is enhanced by inducing tensile stress in the fluid by subjecting the fluid centrifugal force or centripital force depending upon the flow of the fluid.

  • Patent number: 6495948
    Abstract: The present invention relates to improved spark plugs for igniting a fuel charge in an internal combustion engine, and is particularly concerned with an improved spark plug construction which improves combustion pressure and fuel mileage and diminishes exhaust pollution. The spark plug includes a center electrode and a ground electrode. In one embodiment, the ground electrode has an elongate edge that extends past the major dimension of the center electrode. The elongate edge can either be positioned substantially tangentially to or within a “zone” outside of the center electrode's periphery. Preferably, the edge of the center electrode and the lower interior edge of the ground electrode will be presented towards one another such that the edges are or are among the closest portions within the sparking region.
